Which type of telescope would perform better on a mountaintop than at a lower elevation?

1 answer:

marishachu [46]3 years ago

5 0

when an optical telescope located on the ground is used to view the sky the image has to surpass through the earth's atmosphere which is polluted. so the resolution wont be clear. When viewed on a mountain top both optical and infrared telescopes would perform better as the air above the atmosphere is less depth and cleaner.

Calculate the mole fraction of the ionic species kcl in the solution.

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Calculate the mole fraction of the ionic species KCl in the solution A solution was prepared by dissolving 43.0 g of KCl in 225 g of water.

<u>Answer:</u> The mole fraction of KCl in the solution is 0.044

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ .....(1)

<u>For water:</u>

Given mass of water = 225 g

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of water}=\frac{225g}{18g/mol}=12.5mol$

<u>For KCl:</u>

Given mass of KCl = 43 g

Molar mass of KCl = 74.55 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of KCl}=\frac{43g}{74.55g/mol}=0.577mol$

Mole fraction of a substance is given by:

$\chi_A=\frac{n_A}{n_A+n_B}$

<u>For KCl:</u>

Moles of KCl = 0.577 moles

Total moles = [0.577 + 12.5] = 13.077 moles

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\chi_{(KCl)}=\frac{0.577}{13.077}=0.044$

Hence, the mole fraction of KCl in the solution is 0.044
